    Description

    This interesting carved wooden stool will make a wonderful addition to anyone's collection of African, West African, or Ethnographic art. Even though it is labeled as coming from Burundi, we believe it comes from the Yaka people of the Democratic Republic of Congo. It is an older piece with a nice age patina, some sign past insect infestation, and shrinkage cracks consistent with its age. There is no indication of current insect infestation. It is about 9 1/4" high.
